I genuinely don't know if the people who keep doing this are just stupid, unreasonably contrarian, or intentionally trying to sound unreasonable (and are in favour of the UK style …

Still remember when people mostly referred to them as "quadcopters."

I don't agree with the analogy, but let's run with it for a second anyway. Sending a mangled `text/plain` part in a `multipart/alternative` (when you could simply omit it) is the e…

Are you using a phoscon coordinator? ConBee 2 has a lot of firmware problems in my experience. There are also some devices which advertise ZigBee compatibility but the manufacturer…

Why would it need to measure input to frame latency? Surely it just needs to measure how long it takes the game to go from vsync period to frame ready and delay when the game think…

I didn't mean it completely literally. But presumably you have an idea for a post outline: * Title * Brief * Table showing the issue * Notes about CSS/JS disparity * An idea for wh…

It takes less time to write the prompt, you could just publish that? It's an important topic, and I am glad you wrote about it, but even half a page of notes would have been enough…

Look, it's pretty clear to me that you're either not reading half of what I write, or choosing to ignore it. I am not particularly interested in speaking to a wall. > I claim nothi…

> Are you imagining that there is some way to partially map relations and objects but somehow not go all the way? I admittedly cannot picture what that would look like. What would …

> That depends on the rest of your code. No, I am asking about your hypothetical "bare bones" "ORM" which explicitly _doens't_ have anything beyond "object mapping". > When your co…

Okay, so I have an object like: User { name friends: List posts: List } Let's say we have a "MappedUser" which is derived from this type by this ORM. I now do: user = get_mapped_us…

First, it's useful to define terms. When I talk about an ORM I talk about an ideal ORM which transparently maps ordinary object graph access patterns to relational database queries…

A query builder is not an ORM. ORMs build queries for you, but a query builder does not need to be an ORM.

There are rather concrete problems that strictly prevent it from being possible to efficiently map graph (object) database access patterns to a relational database. It's not a matt…

> inconsistent I have a strong feeling that this person just likes this as a style and enforces it by hand…

It's okay, completely wrong thread for this statement, but I wouldn't voluntarily use current MacOS (no idea if the older variants weren't terrible) over anything but ssh. Worse th…

The list of "bonus" criteria and how they come about makes me feel sick. I am not currently looking for employment, nor am I currently particularly worried about future prospects i…

When I tried implementing something like this at some point, I found it impossible to actually implement reliably because DNS resolution changes all the time. Unless you dynamicall…

If you have a thermoblock espresso machine, the brewing part can be over and done with in all of 1 minute. But either way, the time consuming parts are preparation and cleanup.

I don't really care about a ban like this, but I do strongly care about exactly how they plan to enforce it. There are technical solutions which are both inexpensive, would be just…

Not yet, but for a long time nobody spent years in court because they were particularly rude to nobody in particular on the internet, and then it happened, and the law was there al…

It's gaming communities too. There is a massive mindset overlap between gamers and average UK residents. They both think that all the dystopia is for the greater good, is never abu…

No, just the UK. I actually think it might be worse. You need to be able to hand over encryption keys too. Claiming to not know them is also not allowed, whether you actually know …

The rule is that at all times enough return vessels must be docked to the ISS for everyone on board. These are usually the same vessels they used to get up to the station. This has…

I mean, yes, the lace quality is important too. But strictly speaking, not tying a granny knot will improve your results regardless of choice of lace.
